Maximal dissipation and well-posedness for the compressible Euler system
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss the problem of well-posedness of the compressible (barotropic) Euler system in the framework of weak solutions. The principle of maximal dissipation introduced by C.M. Dafermos is adapted and combined with the concept of admissible weak solutions. We use the method of convex integration in the spirit of the recent work of C.DeLellis and L.Székelyhidi to show various counterexamples to well-posedness. On the other hand, we conjecture that the principle of maximal dissipation should be retained as a possible criterion of uniqueness as it is violated by the oscillatory solutions obtained in the process of convex integration.

Global Well-posedness for Euler-boussinesq System with Critical Dissipation
In this paper we study a fractional diffusion Boussinesq model which couples the incompressible Euler equation for the velocity and a transport equation with fractional diffusion for the temperature. We prove global well-posedness results.
متن کاملWell-posedness for compressible Euler with physical vacuum singularity
An important problem in the theory of compressible gas flows is to understand the singular behavior of vacuum states. The main difficulty lies in the fact that the system becomes degenerate at the vacuum boundary, where the characteristics coincide and have unbounded derivative. In this paper, we overcome this difficulty by presenting a new formulation and new energy spaces. We establish the lo...

متن کاملThe Cauchy Problem for the Euler Equations for Compressible Fluids
Some recent developments in the study of the Cauchy problem for the Euler equations for compressible fluids are reviewed. The local and global well-posedness for smooth solutions is presented, and the formation of singularity is exhibited; then the local and global well-posedness for discontinuous solutions, including the BV theory and the L∞ theory, is extensively discussed. Some recent develo...
متن کاملWell-posedness of compressible Euler equations in a physical vacuum
An important problem in gas and fluid dynamics is to understand the behavior of vacuum states, namely the behavior of the system in the presence of vacuum. In particular, physical vacuum, in which the boundary moves with a nontrivial finite normal acceleration, naturally arises in the study of the motion of gaseous stars or shallow water. Despite its importance, there are only few mathematical ...
